Gerard Cosmetics Hydra Matte Liquid Lipstick

Hi everyone!

Two years ago I started to wear lipstick on a regular basis. My thoughts before I used lipstick were: How can I eat or drink with lipstick? What if I need to wipe my mouth with a tissue? How can it stay on my lips? I was simply to lazy to wear any lipstick and I thought they looked too much on me.

Then a colleague bought a beautiful Yves Saint Laurent lipstick and I was curious what color it was. She showed me the lipstick and said: Try it on! It was a bright red/vampy color. The lipstick had an amazing smell, I almost wanted to take a bite out of it. So she convinced me to try it on, and when I came back my other colleagues were surprised. They told me it suited me very well. From that moment I became a lipstick hoarder.

Gerard Cosmetics has an amazing range of lipstick, but I really wanted to purchase the liquid lipstick. I bought mine from Beautybay, which is a very reliable webshop. When you compare to them with other beauty webshops they have the best price. I purchased mine for €11,60 each.

Look at the amazing packaging! It looks so luxurious and the gold makes it even more pretty. For now I am good but actually I want to purchase all the liquid lipsticks, just to complete this collection. That is how much I love these liquid lipsticks.

The Ruby Slipper is a dark cherry red color. When you apply it you notice that the strokes are visible and especially when you have dry lips you can see product get stuck in to the dry cracks. So when you use this color ,scrub your lips before you use this (I always scrub my lips in the morning, put it in your routine!).

The Serenity is a soft pink/peachy color. I noticed, just like the Ruby Slipper, that you really need to scrub your lips before you apply these liquid lipsticks. When you don’t the light pink/peachy color really gets in to the cracks of your lips and make your lips look uneven on the surface. But when you do the matte finish is amazing!

The Cher is my favorite, you can almost say that it is the dupe of the Kat von D Everlasting Liquid Lipstick in the color Lolita. I can’t say anything bad about this color. If you want to try a liquid lipstick from Gerard Cosmetic, it should be this one!

Overall I think this is one of the best liquid lipsticks I ever used! They don’t smell like chemicals, it dries fast, the finish is pretty good and it stays matte. The lipstick stays on the lips for a long time. I only need to apply a bit on the inside of the lips after I had dinner or lunch. For €11,60 I think you get a great product! If you don’t own any products of Gerard Cosmetics, I recommend you to buy the liquid lipsticks!
